A year can do a lot of changes and 2018 proved it right. We all smiled, cried, got frustrated, depressed, felt happiness, sadness, celebrated success, joy yet we all survived 2018. Family and Friends – with the changes 2018 brought to life, made a significant change in ‘Our People’ list. Some understood life happens at the most unexpected time and helped to deal with it and some blamed us for the change and vanished in the midst. Indeed 2018 taught us to cherish the people who stood by us when the times are tougher and stay away from the people who toxin our existence. Personal life – some found the true calling of their lives and some lost the purpose of living. Some had to make tough decisions to let go of the ones whom they dreamt of infinity and some had to hold on to their affairs of life to give it another chance. Indeed 2018 taught us to face life as it is and be grateful and do justice for the second chances life granted us in this year. Career – some ...

Oh, My Lady! Who sits there fragile and broken, drenched in tears and denial, drained with false hopes and hollow promises, collapsed with fear, heartache, and loss – I was one of you, I know you, I feel you. I know how hard it is to come out of the fear of rejection, failure and the screeching pain which your heart endure every single day. Let me tell you My Lady, no matter how hard it gets, no matter how broken you are, you’re going to make out of it. I promise you. You’re going to heal and you’re going to live once again. This is not one of those empty promises which broke your heart. This is a promise of finding your own wisdom. My Lady! Remember, you are strong. You’re one rare piece of diamond. You are as hard as a rock. As soft as a butterfly. As fast as a river. Don’t you believe me? Let me make it clear. Despite the hardship going on in life, you’re breathing. You’re putting up a smile in front of your loved ones. You still have that soft corner which is ready for ...

It is said that in order to survive in this evolving world we need to change, we need to stand out for our rights. Or else we will be the next dinosaurs to vanish away from this world – says a group of women who stand for FEMINISM. So what is this feminism? What these group of feminist wants to achieve?   A deep research indicated in short that, feminism is all about having equal rights to men. Setting MEN as a standard for the liberation of women. We all know by nature all human beings are flawed, including men. Are these women in the western world, really want to benchmark their standard to another flawed human species?   True that no woman should be oppressed. No woman deserves to be ill-treated.   No woman needs to live in the fear of rejection because of their gender. Women are wonderful humans. Beautiful creatures of God. The Holy Prophet (Peace Be Upon Him) stated: "Treat women well, for they have been created from a rib.   The rib is most curved ...

Yes, we all live once and we want to live that to our fullest.   We love to enjoy and want to explore the best, life can give us. It really sounds excellent and if we get to live the life we dream of, then yes it’s going to be incredible. A dream come true life is a dream of everyone’s life. When a child is born, the parents plan the entire lifetime of the child. The clothes to wear, birthday celebrations, school life, education and career path to every single detail of the child was planned by parents, relatives and the society. Little they knew when the child grows up, the needs grow too. Children take their own path and they have their own plans for their life. So basically everyone plans their legacy life. But often we forget that we are not assured of life. We are not guaranteed we will live till next year, month, day, hour, second…. Nope... We really don’t know. The only thing which is assured in our life was death. Any moment, death can conquer us. Any moment can be ou...

Everyone in this world goes through rough patches where it would break our lives into a number of pieces we never thought it would break and at a time like that most of us would want to bury ourselves in a dark room filled with loneliness and weep the abyss out of us. It is indeed hard to come out of our shell and serve even a plate full of food which is needed for the day. Anger, Stress, Depression would creep into us and things get eventually worst when the solutions for the problems are far away from us or when we don't even see the light at the end of the tunnel. The strength of the relationships with our loved ones gets thinner and thinner every passing day. These struggles are not easy.   Their sorrows can take deep root in our brain and result in many mental and physical instabilities. So are these struggles worth it? Would it make any sense in our lives in the long run? When you're faced with a calamity all you have to do it to PAUSE. Yes, you have to pause to ...

Divorce – it is indeed has become a common word in our fast phased society. Everyone talks about it. Most of them undergo that and many have made it as a quick solution for their issues. It seems simple in the eyes of this new era. It is not more than a law document to be signed for those who have never gone through it. But trust me, it is NOT as it seems to be. It is NOT as easy as everyone thinks. And trust this too when I say, Divorce is a tabooed word for women. What actually happens when a woman is the victim of this so-called Divorce?   This article is not to purify women to be the chestiest, nor to blame every man to be the injustice. This is merely to listen to the story ‘SHE’ had to say to the world. This is the ‘VOICE’ of thousands of women out there who chose to LIVE after their calamity. This is ‘HER’ side of the story. A girl gets into the marriage life with so many dreams, desires, and hopes of a happily ever after. She wants her darling husband to ...

It was on a mistiest dark night, the greatest man who has ever laid feet on this earth was in a sincere supplication, crying out to his mightiest creator. This man, the most beloved to his Lord, a monumental leader, the carrier of the message of truth, the light of the whole world, Prophet Muhammed (Peace Be Upon Him) has raised his hand to His Lord asking for help. Prophet Muhammed (Peace Be Upon Him) was surrounded by thousands of men who were waiting to strike the brow of war to take away the dear lives of the believers. This was The Battle of Badr. The Muslim army was made up of 300-317 men strengthen by faith. They possessed 2 horses, 70 camels and very few armories to fight against an army of polytheists consisting of 1000 men, large number of horses, camels and massive armories. Skilled warriors and amours, talented combaters and archers, men with knowledge and experience on war field were taking the forefront of the polytheist army. These men were motivated by a horri...

It is indeed an inevitable fact that world is progressing faster than ever, showing huge progress on the facilities and the technology dominating every corner of human lives. These have immensely focused on improving the standard of living of humankind but not been able to fill the void in the person’s personality. These technology-driven society has detached humans from owning our own soul, drifting apart from the decision-making process and letting us live with the ‘flow’. When the life hits with a rough patch, it is when we realize we are lacking the ability to navigate through it and we are shackled with self-doubts. Or when we see we are incapable of raising our voice for the trespassing events happening in front of us because we are not the one with self-confidence. So what is this Self Confidence? And why it is so important? Especially for a Muslim? Self-confidence in very brief is when we have a considerable amount of faith in the ability lie in thyself. It is a ve...
